Assess novelty/prior art and claim scope by decomposing claims, tracing relevant families, and checking status/provenance.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# assess-prior-art-and-claims ## Purpose Assess novelty, prior art, claim scope, legal-status observations, and provenance without making unsupported legal conclusions. ## Input contract ```yaml required: [claim_set, target_domain, jurisdiction_scope] optional: [known_families, search_context, evidence_records] constraints: [claim text and source provenance required, jurisdiction and observation date must be explicit] ``` ## Execution protocol Do not perform called SOP operations inline; each loaded SOP owns its contract and thresholds. 1. You MUST load skill `parse-patent-claim` to parse independent and dependent claims and map elements to technical functions. 2. You MUST load skill `trace-patent-family` to trace priority, family, continuation, and citation relationships. 3. You MUST load skill `assess-patent-claim-scope` to assess breadth, limiting elements, overlap, and design-around vulnerability. 4. You MUST load skill `assess-patent-legal-status` to classify observed status by jurisdiction and date. 5. You MUST load skill `verify-evidence-independence` to check source independence before synthesizing novelty findings. …

How to install
mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/assess-prior-art-and-claims@sha256:0a0cd4cd265bf33dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.cbc38aa, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
